About the National Arts Centre
The National Arts Centre (NAC) is located in the National Capital Region on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinabeg Nation.
We are Canada's bilingual, multi-disciplinary home for the performing arts. The NAC presents, creates, produces, and co-produces performing arts programming in various streams-- Dance, English Theatre, French Theatre, Indigenous Theatre, the NAC Orchestra and Popular Music and Variety. The Centre also invests and nurtures in our next generation of audiences and artists from across Canada. Our vision is to lead and support the renewal of the Canadian performing arts sector over the next three years, as detailed in The Next Act, the NAC's strategic plan for 2020-2023. Through collaboration and investment in creation, production, co-production, and dissemination, along with a heightened focus on community engagement, learning, and innovation, the NAC will shape a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive future for the performing arts in Canada.
The NAC creative leadership team, among the best in North America, consists of Cathy Levy (Dance), Mani Soleymanlou (French Theatre), Kevin Loring (Indigenous Theatre), Nina Lee Aquino (English Theatre,) Chris Dearlove (National Creation Fund), Alexander Shelley (NAC Orchestra) and Heather Gibson (Popular Music and Variety). They receive strong support from an exceptional management team and a Board of Trustees whose members come from across Canada.

As set out in its 2020-2023 Strategic Plan: The Next Act, the NAC has pledged to be among the leaders in the renewal and reimagining of the Canadian performing arts sector coming out of the pandemic. The NAC acknowledges the privilege of its relative security at a time when so many artists and arts organizations are experiencing the devastating consequences of the pandemic, and we pledge to fulfil our core value of generosity towards artists, partners and audiences by sharing our resources in concerted efforts to revitalize the performing arts in Canada.
